Total height: 48 cm. Base diameter: 14 cm. Soliflore vase: 41 cm; 300 g. Signature visible on the spout. Offered to any lover of original objects. Created in 1993, the vase was crafted by Alain Guillot, glass artisan. About the artisan: Based in Dordogne, a Meilleur Ouvrier de France and passionate about archaeological glass, he is one of the first French glassmakers to embark on recreating models of Roman, medieval, as well as 17th and 18th-century glassware. "…it is not about copying a shape but rather, starting from an object, rediscovering the succession of gestures that allowed for its production. …a genuine experimental research conducted with patience and tenacity in order to reconnect with the operational chains of past glassmakers." (A. Guillot). (Commentary taken from a search engine).
